Here I am two years later and my natural hair is worse than its ever been. In 2020, my hair was making a comeback, but then I got sick with an infection that no one could figure out. I kept coming down with fever and chills and going to this doctor and that. Finally in 2021 at Easter I came down with cellulitis and was in the hospital. After that I was on antibiotic for awhile.
At my 2021 physical, my doctor said my hair was not gaining. So I started seeing a Tricologist soon after that appointment. She put me on a program of Minoxidil and a laser cap. The bad part of the treatment is that both Minoxidil and the laser cap can cause a shed to happen. Well, I had the shed and my hair is thinner than ever. But there has been some hope as the top of my head has improved slightly. And hair has grown in the bad areas where 2 months ago it was looking pitiful. The program lasts for a year, so I have a ways to go yet. So I wear my wig and hats and keep moving forward. Hubby and I pray every day for my hair among other things.
Our oldest son is doing alright. Our relationship with him is okay. Our relationship with our younger son, who lives in Utah, is nil. He has cut us off. However we have a good relationship with his wife in California.
Mark and I caught a bug from the grandsons after they went back to school in mid August. Whatever it is it won't go away. We keep having bouts of weakness, body aches, and just overall not feeling well. Its been going on since the beginning of September.
Well, that's the update. There is so much more to tell, however details are for those who want to contact me personally.
